Behold, the power of a chambray shirt.

My hope in this post, is to help you look at your closet in a new light.

This was my maid of honor dress from my sister’s wedding coming up on three years ago. It’s a beautiful strapless Vera Wang number that probably cost more than half my closet combined. But no worries, I found a new way to wear it last Easter.

What do you have hanging in your closet that can be repurposed?

Have you tried seeing any of the dresses in your closet as a skirt? Have any you could pull of with a t-shirt and denim jacket over them?

Do you have a dress that maybe shows a little too much up top? Have you got a chambray shirt? See where I’m going here….?

Play around with what you own. Maybe nothing works out, maybe it does. Either way you are exercising the part of your brain that sees a great ruffled dress becoming a skirt.

And just maybe, you’ve had a gem of an outfit hiding in there this whole time…

(Here’s a post I did on wearing maxi dresses multiple ways).
